    Street Triple 675

    Official pics are circulating of the new Street Triple. I guess we'll have to wait for actual tests to see just how much of a naked 675 it really is, or if it's "tuned for torque" as so many of the manufacturers like to say.
    As with the Speed Triple, I reallly like it except for the bug eyes. But I understand they are a defining feature for these bikes.

    I like the price. Only a couple hundred more than a 599.

    That will be nice if they leave it a good sportbike and don't detune the engine or put budget suspension on it. With that pricetag it looks like it may actually be the daytona minus the fairings. It should be a successful bike as an alternative to the tuono/monster for the people who want a true naked sportbike, but don't want 1000cc or the italian pricetag.

    I hear Tom Cruise's stunt double will be suspended from cables in front of a blue screen for cheesy ultra-fake action scenes on one in Mission Impossible 4
    Is that so?

    I don't see a thread about the Street Triple R, which does actually get the Daytona bits the regular model should have had. 2009 Triumph Street Triple R Review - Motorcycle.com
    Motorcycle.com named the R their Motorcycle of the Year for 2009, for what that's worth: Best of 2009 - Motorcycles of the Year - Motorcycle.com
    I'd rather be riding

    Love everybody
